Okay, Ray....these pictures are great! But then you have a gorgeous model,so how can you really go wrong?? You are such a show-off, you know you are a talented photographer....now get to work or something! Your family misses you too much!! Haaa
Ray, you are such a talented photographer! Using Daniella as a model..that's too easy. I challenge you to take on all 4 LRD's in a photo shoot! I can guarantee that shoot would be a success as well!

What can I say? Your new Bee has allowed you to reach new heights in photography. Your pictures are gorgeous and of course so is your model. Your challenge would be to make ME look that good !!! Tell me the specifics of these pictures. Did you take them during the day or at night? Did you take others withough the BEE to see the difference? I would love to see some new pics against a black background. They look so rich.
The bee sure makes a difference in lighting and eliminating shadows. Love the pictures. Hey, I have an uplight that I can lend you if you want to have some backlighting too. It is not a professional light but it would work great, I think !!
Jenny's idea of an LRD photoshoot sounds terrific!! When can we schedule it ????
And of course, I will say it again. Daniella poses so naturally and she takes such great pictures that she should definitely be earning extra income in modeling !!
The photographer is excellent and the model is even better. Good for both. You are great. Aby
ray, what are you talking about??what video?? what areas where people need it the most? I am reallly confused. What are you doing up there??
I love the idea of the Christmas photoshoot. Pencil us in.
I love the idea of the white background.
I think the cloning will freak us out a bit. 4 LRD's is all we can handle...some days (like today) handling one can be a challenge!!!
Go ahead..clone them if you think it would look good...you know what you're doing!
I guess I need to answer to all of these posts.. so here we go. (it's going to be long, so sit tight)!
Janel - First, you are right, with Daniella as my model it is easy, but I was actually wanting to show the lighting of the pictures (jaja), BTW.. I'm working and actually I'm working even harder, it is 8:30pm and I'm still writing a progress report of my visit up here.
Jen - I like your challenge, but not because it may be difficult as they won't stay still, but because I would love to do a shoot with them. Now, the shoot that I have in mind is not a normal shoot, but more like a fun shoot. Something that I've experimented a bit and I really enjoy the outcome called "cloning". This is where you will really decide if you would really would like to have another child. Think of it of LRD times 10... Can you handle that? (See this picture)
Ibis - First, I learned a few days ago by watching a video how to take off about 15-20 pounds of a person's body using photoshop, so anything is possible and I'm dying (really dying) of trying this out. I honestly don't think it is the way to go, but it is really nice to work on those trouble areas where most people always complaint about.
Specific on the images... They were taken at around 5:20pm. I have the blinds opened as well as the "bees". The backdrop is actually our living room wall. I’m going to start building my backdrop rack so that I can inter-change drop colors. I did not take any without the bees as I have seen the difference from before. I like the black, but I like WHITE as background better. I like black for product shots better.
As for the LRD photo shoot schedule? I mentioned that it will be a great idea to shoot them for XMAS cards this year. We’ll have to schedule it good so that LRD had their NAPS and they are as happy as they can be.
Sorry for this post to be sooooo long, but I had to answer to everyone in one post.
Ok, now I have to get back to my report that I need to finish, take a shower and go to bed as I have to ready to rock by 6am again…
Jenny… Happy Birthday as you won’t be around for your special day. I hope you guys have a blast in Disney, then again, everyone has a blast at Disney… Bring tons of….. Stories…just stories, ok?
